The information published about the Coronavirus "Covid-19" is renewed daily, and we are still trying to identify the virus, its various symptoms and its long-term impact.

In the latest report of the American Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it announced reassuring news for those who have recovered from Corona, which is that they have immunity from the virus for a period of three months after recovery.

If you were one of those who contracted Corona recently, you may have a lot of questions, and how to protect yourself so that you do not run the risk of infection again.

And it may become more frightening than before, as your body may not stand the infection twice, but now you can feel some reassurance in knowing what immunity you have obtained that makes your risk of being infected again very low during the three months after recovery.

The center did not say whether or for how long would you remain immune to the Corona virus after recovering, but it did mention something interesting in its latest reports regarding "When should I be isolated?"

The report said, "People who have tested positive for the Coronavirus do not need to be quarantined or undergo testing again for up to three months as long as they do not show symptoms again."

He added, "There are no confirmed reports so far of re-infection of a recovered person again within three months (after recovery) of the first injury."

He stated that the case in which those recovering from Corona need to be tested is the appearance of symptoms of infection on them again within three months of the first episode, with no other specific cause for the symptoms.

He explained that because of the possibility that the recovered virus had DNA remnants for a period of three months from infection, and therefore, upon testing, the result could be positive, although the person is not infected and cannot transmit the infection to others.

In addition to the "CDC" report, many studies indicated that immunity may last for a few months at least. Even if the center did not declare the existence of immunity, these studies proved the presence of antibodies in the recovered people that last for months and protect from the risk of infection again.

In a research letter published in the New England Journal of Medicine last July, a team from the University of California, Los Angeles, tracked the levels of antibodies over time in 34 patients who had moderate symptoms, and the study showed that the level of the immune protein (Immunoglobulin-IG) remains in The blood gradually decreases for three months after infection.

And immune protein is antibodies that work to strengthen the immune system in the face of the virus in the event that they are infected again, and those immune bodies can also be separated from the blood and used in the form of plasma to treat cases with severe symptoms.

In a study conducted by a team from Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, on nearly two thousand people recovering from the Corona virus, the study reported that more than 90% of those who had mild and moderate symptoms recorded the presence of antibodies in their blood for about three months of infection.

Post-recovery measures

As for the necessary measures that those recovering from the Coronavirus must take during the first months after recovery, Dr. Hussam Amjad, assistant teacher of anesthesia and intensive surgical care, said to Al-Jazeera Net, that “it depends on whether the infection has mild, moderate or severe symptoms, and in the case of infection. With mild symptoms, with the integrity of tests and CT scans of the injured, there is no problem. "

He added, "As for those who have had moderate symptoms, such as the two approaches or a decrease in the level of oxygen in the blood in addition to the other symptoms of the virus, the doctor must be monitored for the possibility of the patient needing to continue taking blood thinning medications, and the importance of drinking water regularly during the day."

As for those who had severe symptoms, namely the patient's use of ventilators or intensive care, he indicated the importance of following up with the doctor regarding blood thinners as well.

He added, "The journey of recovery from the impact of severe symptoms on the body may last for six months, especially with regard to the effect on the lungs and breathing problems, and therefore it is necessary to follow up with a chest disease doctor."

CDC recommends that all people, whether they are infected with the Coronavirus or not, and those who are also recovered, should take steps to prevent infection and stop the spread of the virus, by washing hands regularly, staying at least a meter and a half away from others whenever possible, and wearing masks.
